La Collection

Allande presents two collections of limited-edition lingerie fine a year, each with eight or nine design lines, known as thèmes. The collections comprise both classic and fashion forward designs, and are highly anticipated in France.

Each thème comes in three different bra types: the armatures, which offers fuller coverage and greater support; the balconnet, a pretty, lower-cut version; and the amplimousse, which is lightly padded, sometimes with extra removable pads for optional added volume.

Allande's bras are tailored to flatter a woman’s natural shape rather than concealing it under highly padded uniform moulds (as is the current trend in the US). This adds an unparalleled elegance to the figure.

To complete the parure (set, or outfit), there are always at least three different undies with eachthème: a culotte (elegant, more coverage), a slip (bikini) and a string (thong). Sometimes the design team gets carried away and we'll have a shorty or a string fantaisie as well. Usually the culottes in one or two of the thèmesper seasonwill be gainante (shape wear) for an even smoother figure.
